Hello all!
The cast...we need to meet next Wednesday at 7:00 pm to run through the show, please. We want to make sure that Dave, who will be playing Wendell on Thursday, can see where he needs to be and when.

Regarding Tonight, Thursday, December 3, 2015, and Saturday, December 6, 2015
Please remember that this rehearsal will be a full dress rehearsal, so make sure that you come ready with your costumes. We will have photographers there for publicity and for our purposes. I am also going to videotape tomorrow night. The first thing we are going to do Sunday is to watch the video and critique ourselves...so be prepared to bring "it" tomorrow night!
If anyone has pool noodles they would like to get rid of, please make sure to bring them tomorrow night. I need lots of them to build the throne. Also, we are still looking for toys to put onto the shelves. Most of these will be donated after the show, so anything you bring make sure that that's what you want to do with it. If you want your toy(s) back, make sure you get it(them) off the shelf as soon as the show is over on the 20th.
I am going to have comp tickets soon. You will need to initial that you have received them. I will also provide information as to how to use them. If you have any questions about them, let me know. Three things to keep in mind is that they are only good for the first weekend, they are essentially the ticket itself, so they must be handed in when the interested parties come to see the show, and reservations must be made ahead of time.
Tomorrow night after rehearsal I would like to record all the recorded speeches for the show, as well as your reasons why your favorite Christmas song is your favorite Christmas song, so as soon as rehearsal is over, please don't run away. Make sure I get that recording. Alternately, if you would like to record it yourself using your iPhone or android phone, you may do so. Just make sure that there's no noise in the background and it's as clear as possible
Finally, below, I am including information about the Volunteer Spot sign-up. Please follow the link and sign up to bring something for Sunday. When everyone has signed up, I will bring things that are not spoken for.

Hello everyone, (to let me know you've read the e-mail...please look at #2 and reply with your selections)Before I get into the bulk of the e-mail...HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!1. Mike, Brandon, Jackson, Sarah, Jenna, Eric, and Sage...Thank you for submitting your bios! Everyone else... BOO. Kidding. Please submit your BIO <NOW>!!! I have to get them formatted and put into the program and I am running out of time. Jennifer, can I please have one for Dave as well?Follow this link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1UWuxkuDs8NppYEkcOQW1XIbvhnHLcMFrSTrUh-v0-bg/viewform...or go to the blog (twasatstg.blogspot.com) and complete/submit it please!2. Food for thought. For pre-show and intermission music, I want to use YOUR favorite Christmas songs. Please do not pick something just to be funny. Please select something that is truly your favorite song. Along with this, I would like to record each of you telling me who you are, who you play, the name of your song, and why it's your favorite song. I will then put it all together to use for the shows. PLEASE come to rehearsal on Monday with this information in mind. In the event that more than one of you submit the same song, which may be feasible, depending on the artist...I want to get your top three (3). This way, I have options. I will let you know on Monday if you have to go with a backup. Does this make sense?3. We are still looking for a Santa to come in for photos with the kiddos before the show. We can offer this person a stipend for their help...it won't be a ton, but it'll be something. We are also flexible about WHEN we do this, but we need to solidify SOON so that we can get publicity out.4. If you haven't had your headshot taken...be there on Monday. Speaking of...PLEASE miss no more rehearsals. We need everyone there and we need to be uber focused.5. PLEASE go over your lines while you're away this week. And if you're part of the song...learn it! This is6. I sent this out on Facebook. Please consider doing the same. Also...consider coming to help if you can. :)HAPPY (early) THANKSGIVING! :) Just a quick plea for help... we are having a work call THIS Saturday, November 28, 2015, from 10 am until 2-4 pm (or later). We have lots of little projects to complete, so if you're handy at, well...anything... we would definitely appreciate your help. We will be decorating, cleaning, organizing, planning, constructing, running electrical, gathering, and so on. PLEASE consider coming at the very least for a little, because..."Many hands make light work!" THANK YOU!!!7. We are still looking for a charity that will accept our toy donation after the show on December 20, 2015. So far it looks like most places stop accepting toys on December 17. That won't work for us, unfortunately. Also, if you have any toys to donate to us, please let me know.8. Remember, we have a rehearsal/performance on December 8, 2015, for Christian City. We are also hoping to invite any family, friends, and industry types as well. This is a great way to have an audience who will give us great feedback and provide "noise" to help you know when to pause for laughter, etc... Please tell people about this, but there are a few rules to bear in mind...
- The lower half of the theatre is reserved for Christian City and others who may not be able to get up the stairs so easily.
- Anyone who comes (Christian City is exempt from this) should do one of the following...pay what they want (nothing is not acceptable), OR bring in a few cans of food for food donations.
- It should be understood that while this is a performance...it is also still a final rehearsal...that means that if we need to stop for whatever reason...we will.
I can't think of anything else currently...so...I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving and I look forward to seeing you on Saturday (or Monday, if not Saturday).THANK YOU!Jared
